A new casting platform for artists and fans has been launched today
Düsseldorf, 10. December 2008. The new cooperation between the Düsseldorf-based mobile communication services provider and the new check my clip online portal makes users trend setters, and it's also a valuable source of the very latest music and fashion information.
Check my clip is a casting and entertainment platform for music, TV and fashion stars and starlets. It gives people with special talents the opportunity to market themselves and network with people who are interested in them, agencies and fans – both in Germany and in other countries.
Check my clip is predominantly a portal where artists can market themselves. Yet it's also a platform which unconventional art lovers and trend setters can profit from. The portal differs in many respects from existing community platforms. The user contributions are categorised - e.g. according to region or activity (musician, producer, make-up artist, dancer, model etc.). Members aren't left alone on the platform, either. They are also supported by many contacts in the entertainment branch. check my clip has a simple and intuitive user interface with many practical functions. For example, a comprehensive filter function enables a targeted search for artists with specific characteristics. The portal is also the first video platform offering users direct links to the people shown in the videos. Users who would like to contact the artist can click on a marker in the video which takes them straight to the artist's profile. Models can create a set-card for presentation purposes which provides potential customers with a good decision basis. Agencies can also create their own profiles to promote themselves to artists who are already under contract.
In this cooperation, Vodafone is supporting talented artists to market their songs and music fans to discover new talent as operator of Germany's most successful mobile music download shop and the third-largest digital music shop. It is also taking advantage of its existing music products to do this. Vodafone's music platform contains over one million songs in all genres, plus products such as the Vodafone Music Manager and the Mobile Music Client, offering Vodafone customers simple and convenient access to music content.
Vodafone is exclusively marketing the check my clip community platform on the web and on its mobile portal. In return, the telecommunications provider gains valuable insights into new music trends and newcomer bands so that it can adapt its music shop product range to consumer preferences and needs and deliver the hits of tomorrow to customers today.
